Hey girls! I was thinking about having a sleepover to celebrate my birthday today. I know it's kinda short notice but it would mean a lot to me if you could make it. I mean, we've never really had any serious bonding, right? Well, I think now is a good time as any to do that! We could probably have it on Friday just so there's a bit more time to

/pretends to not be late

[carpo_vita]

[...oh snap.]

Happy birthday, Kujikawa-san. [Well he can still offer his best smile, if nothing else. :D;]

/sees no late

[notjust_risette]

Thank you, Minato-kun!

Have you gotten me a present yet? [She may or may not be kidding.]

o7 1/3

[carpo_vita]

[...Ah.]

2/3

[carpo_vita]

...No, since I just found out now. I'm sorry, Kujikawa-san.

3/3

[carpo_vita]

I'll find something, though, if you would allow me the time. Would that be okay?

[notjust_risette]

[And she giggles a little.] I was just kidding, Minato-kun. But I can wait if you still want to get me one.

[carpo_vita]

[He faintly chuckles.] I will, before your party on Friday. Is that alright?

[notjust_risette]

Sure, that's fine by me.

[She pauses for a moment, musing about what she decides on saying next.]

Hey, think I could ask for something else, though?

[carpo_vita]

Thank you for the grace period. [Lightly joking, as his smile suggests.]

That's fine. What is it?

[notjust_risette]

Well, I don't get why you're so formal sometimes. I mean, we're friends, right? I was thinking maybe you should stop calling me Kujikawa-san and just call me Rise instead.

[...Yeah that's only normal when you start, but he tends to just stick to it and forget when it's good enough to drop a rank - unless explicitly told like now. So it's not without sheepishness when he replies.] Aha, yes. I'm sorry. It's... an old habit, but you're right. Would Rise-san be alright, from now on?

[notjust_risette]

Yeah, that's fine. Better than sticking to Kujikawa-san the whole time.

[carpo_vita]

[He chuckles lightly.] Yeah. Thank you for pointing it out; it is overdue. I'll have your present ready as soon as I can, then, and happy birthday again, Rise-san. You also probably don't need to be told, but do have fun on Friday.

[notjust_risette]

I'll definitely will! It'll just be us girls on Friday but maybe I can hang out with the guys some other time instead.

[carpo_vita]

Anytime you'd like. Until then, Rise-san.
